The 10 year anniversary of ownership is just around the corner, so today I've made some room in the garage and spent 4.5 hours rubbing the hell out of the maxipad She's been parked outside for the last 5 years and she is constantly being bombarded by hard reclaimed water from sprinklers at night and hot, baking Hawaiian sun during the day.

Let the pics do the talking, all work was done by hand

Don't forget those wheel wells.

Looks good..well done

Looks good for 10+ years old car. Whats the mileage of it?

 

Thanks for the comments,

The car has 165K on it and its been sitting outside for the past 5 years. I have a two car garage but my wife has a hard time pulling in/out of the garage and that's why the Max been sitting outside.

There are plenty of embedded water spots on the roof and trunk that i probably will never be able to get rid off.
I'm going to invest into PC buffer here shortly, maintaining 3 cars here in Hawaii isn't all that easy.

 

HAHAHAA!!! i totally spotted it!! you got base stickers!! what part of the service you in? im in the navy and im stationed in Kings Bay GA, stationed on the USS GEORGIA SSGN!! hahahaa gotta love it, can't hide those stickers!!

 

You gotta teach your wife to pull in the garage correctly so you can us it too!!!!

 

BMC here at ATG MIDPAC Pearl Harbor Hawaii

 

Great job man looks awesome for a ten year old paint job... love the boogyboard in some of the pictures lol... And definitly teach the wife to park in the garage.

 

What can I say? Looks clean!

 

Cars looks amazing for 165K. Black is not a easy color to buff out. Hats off to you sir! 4.5 hours in that heat is not a easy task! lol!

I have 107K Hope mine holds up that well at 165K

 

nice result, as somebody else said, not perfect, buy way better than most 10yo cars, good work.
